This signed sheet music is for Today by The Smashing Pumpkins, autographed by drummer Jimmy Chamberlain, whose powerhouse playing helped define the band’s signature sound. Released in 1993 on the landmark album Siamese Dream, Today became one of The Smashing Pumpkins’ breakout hits and a defining anthem of the alternative rock era. Written by Billy Corgan, the song contrasts upbeat, jangly guitar riffs and bright melodies with dark, introspective lyrics, creating the kind of emotional tension that became the band’s hallmark. The single climbed to number 4 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart and received heavy rotation on MTV, thanks in part to its colorful, surreal ice cream truck–themed music video. Today remains a fan favorite and a staple of 1990s alternative rock playlists. Jimmy Chamberlain (born 1964) is widely regarded as one of rock’s greatest drummers, known for blending jazz-influenced technique with explosive rock energy. As a founding member of The Smashing Pumpkins, his precision, dynamics, and creativity elevated the band’s music, from the layered textures of Siamese Dream to the epic sprawl of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. Chamberlain’s drumming on Today gave the track its driving pulse and balance, anchoring Corgan’s soaring guitar work and lyrical intensity. After leaving and rejoining the band multiple times, he continues to be a vital part of the Pumpkins’ legacy. Owning this signed sheet music for Today is more than a collectible—it’s a piece of alternative rock history tied to both one of the 1990s’ most iconic singles and the drumming genius of Jimmy Chamberlain. For fans of The Smashing Pumpkins, admirers of Chamberlain’s musicianship, and collectors of alt-rock memorabilia, this artifact captures the power and influence of a song that defined a generation.
